Today has be an a great day! This morning Scott had to go help with a scouting food drive. The kids were awake, so I cleaned up breakfast and took care of the kids. Right after Scott left, Macey came up to me and asked where dad had gone.
I thought about how I could explain to her about scouting and why Scott had to go...not an easy thing to explain to a two year old! I finally told her that Scott was helping Jesus this morning. She didn't miss a beat! She looked at me right in the eye and said "Macey help Jesus too."
I was shocked, and her comment made me laugh. (She did also follow up by telling me that she wanted to play with Jesus at the park.) When I thought about it later,I was touched by Macey' s immeditate and resolute answer...she wanted to help Jesus too. If dad was helping Jesus, she wanted to be there too.
Tonight was the Saturday night session of stake conference. Someone needed to stay home with the kids. Scott immediately told me that I should go. I saw how crazy our home was before I left, but Scott toold me to go. I offered to stay and help, But he told me to go.
Today I am also grateful for a husband that is not only taking. Care of my physical and emotional needs, but He is watching out for my spiritual and mental health. I was so excited for alone time to learn and have a break, and he gave me that. . Oh, how Iove him!
